Now what’s in the 1.10 update

  • Improvements in Extensions
    • They have made major changes to the Upscale AI extension to improve its performance. I’ve seen a few samples and can’t wait to try it out.
    • The extensions can now collapse individual Extensions panels in the Catalog view so you just see the list of titles for each so the view is not so cluttered. You expand just the extension you want to view its options
    • Interface changes for Noiseless AI, Supersharp AI, and Magic Light AI
  • Added support for additional cameras
  • You can now learn more about each tool by clicking its “i button”
  • You are now able to purchase Luminar Marketplace items directly from within Luminar. No more going from Luminar Neo to the website, and back
  • Many speed improvements in the various tool and Luminar Neo overall.
  • And of course many bug fixes for both the Mac and Windows Versions.

I’ll be downloading the update as soon as it is released on June 1st at 11 am EDT.

Luminar Neo

What is Luminar Neo

It is a creative image editor that is powered by AI technologies. They are building upon the AI technologies that currently exist in Luminar AI but tout this as AI technologies of the future that enable you to fulfill your wildest ideas. Along with the AI technologies it includes a flexible workflow, high-quality editing results. It is based on an entirely new software engine to accomplish your creative tasks with maximum performance and flexibility.

Pre-Order

This product is due to ship sometime this winter at the moment, and thus that can mean late 2021 or earlier 2022 at this point, but if you want to pre-order at the best possible pricing, that can be done now. This early bird pricing is limited to the first 30,000 orders worldwide. After that, back up to regular pricing for the pre-order

By pre-ordering you will also get early access to the software as they will release it to you first.

Coupon codes like mine will not be usable during the pre-order period as they are already giving you the best price possible.

Pricing

For artist making a new purchase

$54 for 1-seat license for Luminar Neo 
$59 for 2-seats license for Luminar Neo

$83 for 1-seat license for Luminar AI+Neo 
$98 for 2-seats license for Luminar AI+Neo

For artists who own previous Skylum products

$88 for 2-seats license for Luminar AI+Neo

Seats are defined as the number of computers that the app can be installed on.

Sample images

Below are sample images using Luminar AI and the type of imagery that Skylum envisions you can create with the all-new Luminar Neo and shows some of the new features in Luminar Neo

Features

Some before and after samples of the various features.

Other images created with Luminar Neo

Some of these have piqued my interest such as the removal of powerlines. If this is as good as it looks in their teaser image, I have multiple images ready to be edited in this new app. And who can’t use the dust removal option, many apps can assist you with finding the spots, but removal is still a mostly manual process. And it looks like they have expanded on the Sky Replacement AI to include the entire background.

Until I can get my hands on a test copy, will reserve my judgment on how well each of these new features work, but if the past performance of Skylum’s products is any indicator of how this one will work, I can’t wait.
